Hi! I'm new to Sittercity, but not to childcare. I'm a warm, responsible, and fun caregiver with 3 years of experience working with toddlers, children, tweens, and teens. I’ve provided care for families privately as well as through KiddieCorp. I’m German-English bilingual and hold a Master’s degree. Currently, I work part-time as a foreign language instructor and a test developer, and I’ll be starting graduate studies in clinical psychology this fall at Pepperdine University. I genuinely love being a sitter because time with children is time well spent. I enjoy supporting their emotional and developmental growth in meaningful ways. I know how important it is for parents to feel at ease when they’re away, and I’m proud to offer parents peace of mind. My childcare background includes not just babysitting, but also K–12 substitute teaching. I am also a storytime volunteer at the Los Angeles Ronald McDonald House. These experiences have helped me respond with patience, insight, and calm in high-stress or emotional moments—while still keeping things fun, silly, and creative when the time is right! Whether we’re reading books, doing crafts, playing games (I love games!), or simply talking about a child’s day, I focus on being present (which includes being *phone free*), kind, and age-appropriate in everything I do. I’m dependable, respectful of family routines, and happy to help with light household tasks or homework help when needed. I am certified in First Aid and CPR. Minimum Hourly Rate: $25 (applies to all bookings, including recurring jobs) Minimum Booking Time: 3 hours Let me know what questions you have—I look forward to talking with you about your childcare needs! In the meantime, here’s a quick recap: ✅ 3 years of experience with toddlers, children, tweens & teens 🎓 Master’s degree; starting graduate school in clinical psychology (Pepperdine, Fall 2025) 🗣️ Bilingual: English & German 🧑🏫 Background in K–12 teaching, language instruction & test development 🧸 Experience in home & event settings, including with KiddieCorp (nationally recognized childcare company) 📚 Storytime volunteer at the Los Angeles Ronald McDonald House 🧘 Phone-free, calm, emotionally attuned, fun, and creative 🧩 Loves games, books, crafts & meaningful conversation with kids 🕒 Available weekday afternoons/evenings & weekends 💵 $25–30/hr (flexible for the right fit) 🚨 Certified CPR & First Aid

** 20 Years Experience (coach, mentor and child care/companion) Hi! I’m a mature and experienced male caregiver offering an alternative to the traditional sitter. Still youthful but in my 50s now, I bring the reliability of a seasoned adult with the energy and playfulness of a “fun uncle” who keeps kids safe, engaged, and genuinely enjoying their time. Ideally, I'd like to find a family that I can work with long-term... but I'm also available for short-term or immediate needs. I’m patient, dependable, kid-friendly and educated at UCLA, with a 30-year career in I.T. (now semi-retired) and more than 20 years of coaching and mentoring experience. I’ve worked with nearly 750 children (primarily boys ages 5–12, though I enjoy supporting kids of all ages.) Whether it’s helping with homework, playing games, taking the kids on outings or just being a steady, positive presence, I balance fun with responsibility. When I’m with your child, I’m not just supervising — I’m fully engaged. I listen, encourage, and tailor activities based on their interests. In the home, we can study, relax or play board games. If we have an outside adventure, it can be to a park, the beach, or to explore museums or other venues to have fun & educational experiences. I'm happy to take the kids to/from school and activities, too. I believe in clear communication with parents, so that my care follows your expectations and routines, making sure we’re aligned as a team. For your peace of mind, I have: • Live Scan (fingerprints) and background-checks through AYSO, YMCA, and other organizations • Safe driving record • Local references available • 20+ hours of child-safety training completed through various programs If you’re open to a dependable, mature male sitter who brings both structure and playfulness, I’d love to support your family. How can I help make your kids’ day a little brighter?
